"Ah, a lot of stores are closed." Tang Xin said a little disappointedly after taking me around Wanda Plaza.

"Today is the first day of the Chinese New Year, so of course many shops are closed."

“That leaves very few options.”

"How about this one?" I pointed to a Chaoshan hotpot restaurant next door. "Hotpot is also suitable for winter!"

"We'll eat whatever Xiaomeng says!" Tang Xin smiled and pulled me inside.

After we sat down, the waiter brought a menu and put it on our table. I was really not used to not being able to order with my phone. I missed my life ten years later. But before I could even sit down, I heard two familiar voices again, until the four of us looked at each other in shock.

"Is it you?" Tang Xin reacted with a bad look on her face.

"Ah, what a coincidence." They both looked embarrassed, and the man apologized, "I'm really sorry for last night."

"Forget it, it's all in the past, let's not mention it." I pulled Tang Xin beside me, signaling her not to worry about being hungry.

"You look familiar to me!" The girl opposite me tilted her head and looked at me, "Oh! Are you Li Xiaomeng from the first year of high school?"

"Ah? You know me?" I was surprised and looked at Tang Xin in surprise, "How do you know my name?"

"Ha... This is a long story. Can we share a table? It's just right for four people. I'll treat you to lunch. How about that as an apology for last night?" The girl looked sincere and didn't look particularly bad.

"Okay then." Seeing the other party being so polite, Tang Xin's expression gradually softened.

Go home!

Chapter 49 Trivia

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Su Qianyi. I'm a sophomore in high school and I'm your senior."

"This name seems familiar?" I thought about it carefully, but couldn't remember it.

"You don't know me, do you?" She waved her hand.

"This is my brother Su Chengfeng. Yesterday, he wanted to eat popcorn, so we had to wait outside for it to be freshly baked at the counter, and then we missed the movie. It was pitch black, and he accidentally tripped, and then..."

"Ha~ Let's not talk about the past anymore." I interrupted her, "I'm curious, how do you know my name?"

"Since you don't know me, then you definitely don't know either. Princess Meng, your photo has been popular on Tieba for a long time."

"Tieba?" The corners of my mouth twitched slightly, and I realized something was wrong. "It can't be..."

"Yes, that's what you're thinking of. The campus beauty pageant or something."

"Tang Xin, lend me your phone!"

"Oh."

Tang Xin unlocked her phone and handed it to me. Before I even opened the forum, my face turned red. This girl actually used our junior high school photo as wallpaper. I stole a glance at Tang Xin, and she turned her head away, pretending to know nothing.

I sighed, opened the Tieba, searched for our high school’s Tieba, and clicked to enter.

Wow, the pinned post is the new campus beauty contest voting post.

First place, Su Qianyi; second, Li Xiaomeng;...sixth, Tang Xin...Bai Xilu eighth.

Tsk, what? Tang Xin only ranked sixth. These people are really blind. In my opinion, Tang Xin and Su Qianyi are equally good, just with different styles.

The most outrageous thing is the follow-up comments, with a lot of photos, some from military training, some from high school, I don't even know who took them. This makes me feel very uncomfortable, with mixed feelings. I have never had this kind of experience before, it's like being a celebrity paparazzi, it used to be very far away from my life. But it suddenly enters your life without warning.

"I've only seen you in photos before. This time I see you in person, and I find that you are more beautiful than in the photos." Su Qianyi looked at me and smiled with her eyes narrowed.

“No way.” I felt a little overwhelmed by the sudden praise.

"In fact, what surprised me the most was how you managed to get first place in every exam, and the gap between you and the second place was so huge."

I returned the phone to Tang Xin, "It's nothing special, just practice makes perfect."

"Ha, is there no special method?" Su Chengfeng couldn't help but ask from the side.

"What methods can you use? In high school, you just do exercises and summarize. There's nothing special about it. You're not asked to publish a paper in a top science journal."

"Listen, are you speaking human language?" Su Chengfeng didn't know how to answer for a moment.

"Hurry up and order. I'm starving." I said quickly as I saw these people not moving. Otherwise, the store owner would come over and kick us out if we continued talking.

……

After a free meal, we said goodbye to each other and agreed to meet at school. Tang Xin still called her driver and sent me home.

"I'll come visit you in a few days. I think I'll be visiting relatives these two days. There are too many relatives at home." Tang Xin seemed a little reluctant when she said goodbye.

"Okay, it's okay. If it doesn't work out, we can meet at school."

"Goodbye~"

"Goodbye."

Watching Tang Xin's car window slowly rising and the car driving away, I felt a little lost inside and a little inexplicably unhappy. I really wanted Tang Xin to stay with me, even though I knew that was impossible.

"Sister, stop looking. Everyone has left." I don't know when Xiaoling stood next to me.

"Ah, Xiaoling. Where's your aunt?"

"I don't know. He went out early in the morning." Xiaoling shook her head.

"Have you eaten?" I scratched my face, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Well, I cooked and ate a little. There were quite a lot of dishes left over from the New Year's Eve dinner last night."

Damn, I felt so guilty. I was having a delicious beef hotpot outside while my sister was eating leftover food at home.

"Can I take you out for dinner tonight?"

"No need, my friend asked me out for dinner." Xiaoling rolled her eyes at me and said, "I'll leave now."

"Oh, I'm the only one at home this afternoon?" Does that mean I'll have to eat the leftovers alone at night?

"Uh-huh, bye~"

Ah Xi, give me back my guilt.

It was not until 10 o'clock in the evening that Xiaoling and my aunt came home one after another. At this time, I had already finished watching the Spring Festival Gala out of boredom. The most outrageous thing was that when my aunt came back, it was Teacher Song who sent her back. When Teacher Song opened the door and saw me looking at them, she blushed.

"Well, your aunt drank a little too much." Teacher Song helped her sit on the sofa, "Xiao Meng, take care of her."

"Won't Teacher Song take care of her personally?" I said with a smile.

"This, this, I'm so embarrassed." Teacher Song looked so embarrassed that he didn't act like a teacher at all.

"It's not the first time. If you like it, just stay." I said helplessly.

"So I'll stay then?"

Looking at Teacher Song's grinning face, I felt like I was sending my own daughter away.

The next morning, when I opened my eyes, I saw a huge face staring at me.

"Wow, Xiaoling, what are you doing?" I scared her. This girl has done this more than once.

"Shh, I found something amazing!" She put her index finger in front of her mouth, looking mysterious.

"what is the matter?"

"There's a stranger in my aunt's bed!"

"Ah...this."

"It seems like you know the secret." Xiao Ling's face got closer and closer. "Who is that person?"

"Ah, this is a long story. Could you please get off my bed first? And where did you get the key to my room?"

"I have a lot of spares." She jumped off my bed and sat on a stool beside me. "Let's get started. Long story short."

"I think it would be better for you to ask your aunt?" I hid in the quilt, put on my underwear, then came out and started putting on my cotton coat, cotton pants and jacket.

"Sister, my hands are a little cold, I want to find a warm place."

"Don't! I said!" Seeing her devilish claws getting closer and closer, I immediately raised the white flag of surrender, "Aunt had a love affair in college, didn't you know?"

"I don't know." Xiaoling shook her head.

"Hey, the one below is her 'boyfriend'."

"What? You mean, my aunt..." Xiaoling widened her eyes, looking incredulous.

"Yes, it's just what you think. My aunt has come out~" I nodded, "and that person is my current homeroom teacher."

"..."

I forgot today was a workday, I thought I was going to work overtime today... and then I was late! Hahahaha

Chapter 50 The So-Called Hero

"Is this the meal cooked by Xiaomeng?" Teacher Song stared at the dining table blankly.

It was already 11 o'clock when Teacher Song and Auntie got up and went downstairs, just as I finished copying the dishes. Because it was the first month of the year, we had prepared a lot of food at home, so lunch was quite rich. I prepared five hard dishes: braised pork trotters, beef with celery, steamed pomfret, fried hairtail, and chicken soup with mugwort and vegetables.

"Yeah~" I smiled and asked them to sit down. "It's rare for the teacher to come to my house as a guest, so of course I have to entertain her warmly."

"What do you think? My niece is amazing, right?" the aunt said with pride.

"How did you manage to be so good at studying and so perfect at housekeeping?" Teacher Song looked at me, with a hint of envy in her tone, "You smell so good that it almost kills me."

"Teacher Song, thank you for the compliment..."

five minutes later……

"Can I have another bowl?" Teacher Song was probably hungry. After finishing a bowl in no time, he wanted more.

"Enough, enough!"
